INSIGHT

Wisdom As Light And Embodied Change

  • Wisdom is like light: it reveals patterns you couldn't see and creates aha moments.
  • Real transformation requires insight (head), empathy (heart), and embodied action (body).
INSIGHT

Truth Requires Humility And Self-Examination

  • Truth in the head center confronts hidden self-deception and the ugly realities we avoid.
  • Pursuing truth requires humility and admitting "I don't know" as the starting point.
ADVICE

Be A Receptive Collector Not A Purveyor

  • Stay receptive: collect wisdom rather than proclaim it and ask, “Does this resonate with you?”
  • Adopt humility when teaching and prefer being a pursuer over a purveyor of wisdom.
